    Contributed by James Lee on Dec 4, 2015
     | 7,430 views

    I realized the triumphal entry, the crucifixion and the resurrection will mean very little if anything at all until we answer this question.

    “Does Church really Matter? Acts 9:18-30” Today we begin looking for Easter and many will be preparing for egg hunts and the like. Sermons are preached today about the triumphal entry as Jesus made His way into Jerusalem. The crucifixion will be the topic ...read more

    Love Does Not Brag And Is Not Arrogant Series

    based on 24 ratings
     | 8,736 views

    This is an in-depth look at how pride is contrary to truly loving God and our neighbor. We examine how pride is often manifested in our lives.

    Arrogance or pride (which often leads to bragging) cannot co-exist with love. Arrogance is having or showing an exaggerated opinion of one’s own importance, merit, ability, accomplishments, etc. It is being conceited. It leads to having and demonstrating contempt for others. Jesus stated that ...read more
